John...I posted on the calendar a meet up at Winton Woods Lake for this coming Sunday, but for some sort of technical reason with his computer Larry can't make me an organizer so that the event can be announced to the entire group. Could you take a look at the event on the calendar and then pick it up as the organizer so that the word goes out? You wouldn't need any further involvement. Let me know...Tom Loch

Hi John- finally joined over the wknd. Tonight, bought my kayak!!! So, East Fork sounds nice. Did you see the discussion I started re: Licking River cleanup? Can we do something as a group?

Oops...just read the entire post...I'll either see you at Willie's or the statue.
